What the E24 Error Means
The E24 error code indicates a sensor-related fault within the tumble dryer. Sensors within the appliance monitor key operating conditions such as temperature and airflow. When a sensor is not functioning correctly or providing readings outside the expected range, the machine will stop and display this error code.
Common Reasons This Error Appears
Faulty temperature or airflow sensor
A sensor monitoring temperature or airflow conditions within the dryer may have failed or be providing incorrect readings to the control board.
Blocked lint filter or condenser
Restricted airflow caused by a blocked filter or condenser can cause sensor readings to fall outside normal parameters and trigger a fault code.
Wiring fault
A loose or damaged connection to one of the internal sensors can prevent accurate readings from reaching the control board.
Electronic control fault
In some cases the control board itself may be misinterpreting sensor data, triggering the error even when the physical sensor appears undamaged.
Safe Checks You Can Try
Clean the lint filter
Remove and thoroughly clean the lint filter. This is always the first step as restricted airflow can cause a range of sensor-related errors.
Clean the condenser unit
If your model has a condenser, remove it and rinse it under running water to clear any lint or debris that may be restricting airflow.
Restart the tumble dryer
Turn the appliance off at the mains for a few minutes before restarting to clear any temporary fault.
